Could I just get a standard van insurance policy to cover my campervan?

A van policy is unlikely to cover much of your equipment and possessions. Van policies usually have a limit of a few hundred pounds for these items. Remember Caravan Guard cover up to £5000 for your non fixed campervan equipment and personal possessions such as clothing.

Caravan Guard also offer mileage discounts plus European travel and breakdown options for you and your campervan. Also we are able to provide cover for those using their campervan to commute to and from work.

If you’re buying a new campervan or bought it new in the last 12 months don’t forget we can offer replacement with new cover up to two years old (terms and conditions apply) - not a benefit often offered in van or car insurance policies.

Our advisers are also specialists in campervan insurance so can help you to get the cover you need at price you’ll love.

Campervan insurance

The VW campervan has been an iconic vehicle for over 60 years and remains as popular today as ever not least in the guise of its California model. But there are literally hundreds of campervan converters out there worth a look.

Caravan Guard provides specialist campervan insurance for campervans up to 25 years old providing they have been professionally converted.

Well known professional converters of campervans include Bilbos, Danbury, Hillside, IH Campervans, Leisuredrive, Vantage, Wellhouse, Westfalia, Wheelhome and Wildax. If when you use our quote facility online and note that your campervan converter isn’t listed, please call us. Chances are we will be able to cover it.

Campervans and van conversions are covered under our insurance policy for motorhomes so please refer to the documents page for full terms and conditions.

As well as Volkswagen based campervans, Caravan Guard can provide insurance for many other types of campervans, campers or van conversions. These are often based on vans manufactured by Citroen, Fiat, Ford, Mercedes and Toyota.

Many campervans are generally small and compact in comparison to coachbuilt motorhomes with living space converting into a bed, and often without separate bathroom. Although some larger van conversions do have a separate bathroom and sleeping areas.

When looking at the exterior of a campervan there isn't much difference compared to what the base vehicle manufacturer’s standard van looks like. It will have windows in the rear side panels and often a pop up roof section (for extra sleeping space or extra headroom). The changes to the interior will be much more dramatic with day time seats that convert into beds, tables, often a cooking hob, fridge, sink, cupboards for storage, and quite often a chemical toilet.

We can also provide insurance cover for some imported campervans such as Mazda Bongo. However, these vehicles must have been imported by a recognised UK dealer and converted professionally.

No claim discount

You can transfer no claim discount from the previous insurer of your campervan, car or other insured vehicle.

If you don't have any discount to transfer, you may still qualify for a large introductory discount if you have been insured and claim free on your private car, a company car, or a named driver on your partner's policy.

We can protect your campervan no claim discount if you have 5 years or more NCD earned on another motor vehicle policy which is available for transfer to your new Caravan Guard policy. To qualify you must not have made a motor insurance claim within the last 12 months.

If you do protect your no claim discount the overall discount you receive will reduce slightly.

Secure storage discount

Security measures at your home can result in a saving on your campervan insurance. For example, fitting a padlock to gates or installing a security post at home, storing in a locked outbuilding at your home.

Cat 1 Alarm systems

CAT 1 alarms generate a sound when any of the doors on a campervan – including the boot and bonnet – are opened. The alarm can be set using either a traditional key fob, PIN code or touch key. In order for the alarm to work and detect suspicious activity, the passenger compartment in the vehicle must have interior movement monitoring. The siren on the alarm must also have its own integral power supply with a coded communication to the alarm electronic control unit. The alarm’s accompanying immobiliser also helps to alert the vehicle’s owner of any movement within the campervan and must be engaged within 60 seconds of the ignition being switched off. When installed, CAT 1 alarms will sound within 300 seconds of a break-in occurring. If you know the name of your campervan’s alarm system you can check if it has Thatcham’s Category 1 approval at

Campervan immobilisers

An immobiliser is an electronic device that prevents the engine from running unless a corresponding key is present in the ignition. We can accept both manufacturer fitted devices and retrofitted devices that are Thatcham Category 2 approved. Most campervan base vehicles registered over the last 20 years will have an immobiliser fitted as standard. If you’re unsure whether there is an immobiliser fitted to your campervan, please check your campervan documentation. Read more about campervan immobilisers here.

Discount for Tyre pressure monitoring

Incorrectly inflated campervan tyres can affect the way a campervan drives and may lead to a serious accident. That's why we offer an insurance discount for tyre pressure monitoring systems (TPMS) fitted to campervan tyres. TPMS systems work by placing sensors either on the campervan's tyre valves or inside the campervan wheels. These sensors continuously measure the pressure and temperature of the tyres and transmit information wirelessly to a dashboard mounted monitor and sound an alarm if there's any abnormality. Note your campervan base vehicle manufacturer may have fitted TPMS as standard – that’s certainly the case in VW’s California T5 and T6 have. Popular aftermarket TPMS makes include TyrePal or Snooper's Tyre Pilot.

Discount for tyre sealant

We offer a discount for pre-puncture tyre sealant or slime, which is a proactive defence against tyre punctures and can help prevent an accident. It's injected through the campervan's tyre valves and coats the inside of the tyres. In the event of a puncture, and when the penetrating object is removed, a small amount of tyre sealant is squeezed through the puncture hole to seal the tyre. We offer this discount for the likes of Phantom Tyre Protector and Ultra Seal. Please note the discount does not apply for post-puncture tyre sealant kits which are only used to temporarily repair tyres following a puncture.

One Month Free discount terms: A discount equivalent to one 12th of the annual premium will be deducted before Insurance Premium Tax (IPT) is applied. If paying by direct debit the discounted premium will still be paid in 12 equal monthly amounts. One month free discount does not apply to legal expenses or breakdown covers. Not available in conjunction with any other offer. No cash alternative will be offered. Minimum premiums apply. We reserve the right to withdraw offers at any time.
